1In the 17th meeting of the AFB, the Board decided to:
(a) Maintain the 50 per cent cap on the funding of project/programmes implemented by MIEs established by decision
B.12/9, and exclude project/programme concepts from the 50 per cent calculation;
(b) Establish a pipeline of fully developed projects/programmes that have been recommended by the PPRC for approval
by the Board, but exceeding the 50 per cent cap;
(c) Prioritize the projects/programmes in the pipeline by sequentially applying the following criteria:
(i) Their date of recommendation by the PPRC;
(ii) Their submission date; and
(iii) The lower "net" cost.
(d) Consider fully developed projects/programmes in the pipeline for approval, subject to availability of resources
and respecting the 50 per cent cap; and
(e) Request that the EFC consider at its 9th meeting the suspension of project/programme submissions as the last
measure and elaborate on a clear threshold that indicates when the measure should be applied (e.g. 60 per cent
excess of the cap). (AFB/B.17/6,
para. 75)
